I heard a lot of sodium causes a part of it.
Better a kidney stone than a baby?
Better make some life changes otherwise your urethra is gonna be huge;)
Drink 4 ounces of LimeAway each day. It will cure all your problems.
The end of your urethea must the size of a pencil.
Slow down on the soda, yeah. And a little less mcdonalds... :) good luck man!

You can have a totally healthy diet and still get kidney stones. I've passed 4 or 5 in the past 3 years, plus had one removed. I don't smoke or drink much soda at all. It's partly because everything has added sodium in it these days and partly because my kidneys don't process uric acid right. Don't assume that just because someone has kidney stones, they don't eat healthy.
I got you beat i had it at 14
It's caused by dehydration my friend, the crystals in your kidneys clump together to form a kidney stone when you are dehydrated
Ow! Thats what happened to my little brother except he's twelve and he passed all three in a month
kidney stone is rated as the worst pain a person can feel. it sucks.
@135: Obviously sir, you have never held your thumb tightly over your urethea when suddenly approaching climacteric apogee. (Cleaned up the language here because of all the young *******).
Farside... you do make a "painfully" astute point. LOL.
@156: Yeah, but only once. Kidney stone may be painful, but there probably never has been a study on it. The worse parts, beside the pain, are the streaming tears, flowing sinuses, and the dripping, boiling earwax.
I passed my first kidney stone when I was ten. They form from excessive intakes of phosphoric acid (gatorade, colas, and more). Not everyone has kidney stones if they have a lot of phosphoric acid; they are genetic. 25- Doctors consider passing a kidney stone is the only pain that can compare to child birth. So technically, it's like having a child. So technically, I already "gave birth" when I was 10. Oh & OP- I'm only thirteen and I've passed one.
yeah but in this case it could very possibly be true. All this site is is people complaining about crap that they many times have no reason to complain about.
guess it's time ro start drinking water
Or stop sitting on the shitter and straining yourself.
actually lemon can help prevent kidney stones.
A shit load of water
Sorry dude. Kidney stones seem like they hurt like hell and I hope I never have to pass one. Even the thought is painful. FYL.
It's better than childbirth though. Would you rather pass 3 kidney stones of give birth to 3 children?
I'm 20 and have over 25 kidney stones. I've had them for 4 years. They don't know what caused so many. My first attack made me pass out from the pain. They suck
206 - it's not really a matter of what's bigger, remember the stone has to pass through a much smaller pipe and one not designed to stretch unlike a ******.. Some stones can be quite large relative to the plumbing.. I can say from experience that the agony is extreme and while ill never experience childbirth, every woman I know that's done both (and I know a few) agree that stones are worse.
208 is right. Stones are much worse. Mine are pretty small but my dad had one the size of a golfball
That isn't.. Normal?
what is normal? what is weird? is weird different and normal popular? think about it.
What Eggers said.
My friend has had 2 in a month
that's your body telling you to quit drinkin' shit and start treating yourself better...
smoothies or cocktails lol
7 - What the heck are you talking about? 0_o
yeah but if the stones are too small to be seen on imaging, all OP can do is pass the remaining stones.
My dad gets it from something- acid and the doc said it's hereditary :/
Actually, it's totally possible for kidney stones to be made of uric acid. Also if kidney stones run in your family, your risk IS higher.
Ouch...
